Question

I have a query

select * from table where name in ('52 T&M', '60 T&M');

The “&” is causing the query to expect a parameter. How do I qualify the “&” in the query to sting so that the query can find string with the “&” character in them?

Answer 1

I would normally use set define off as suggested by omg but it is also possible to do it like this:

select *
from table
where name in ('52 T'||Chr(38)||'M', '60 T'||Chr(38)||'M');
